Eutrophication, marine biotoxins, human health
1992Eutrophication phenomena in marine coastal waters can today be explained on the basis of natural or anthropogenic causes. Undesirable effects and also sanitary problems in both types of eutrophication are often produced, but they may differ greatly in frequency and significance. Some algal biotoxins can affect both marine animals and man, whilst others

In vitro bioaccessibility of the marine biotoxin okadaic acid in shellfish
Food and Chemical Toxicology, 2016Okadaic acid (OA) and their derivatives are marine toxins responsible for the human diarrhetic shellfish poisoning (DSP). To date the amount of toxins ingested in food has been considered equal to the amount of toxins available for uptake by the human body.

Marine Mammals as Sentinels of Environmental Biotoxins
2002Harmful algal blooms (HABs), commonly known as “red tides,” are documented in almost every coastal region of the world. Over the past decade, these toxic blooms appear to have increased in number, magnitude, and seasonal duration, potentially due to the spread of toxic algal species to new areas, eutrophication caused by human development of coastal ...

[Poisoning caused by marine biotoxins].
Bundesgesundheitsblatt, Gesundheitsforschung, Gesundheitsschutz, 2018This paper presents a short summary of the knowledge on marine biotoxins. As toxins are known for their acute effects, they have been classified here according to the effects they cause in acute human poisoning incidents. Toxins may thus be distinguished into those that affect the nervous system (paralytic and other neurotoxins), memory (amnesic ...

Comprehensive applications of marine biotoxins resources
The production of marine biotoxins by varieties of marine organisms such as bacteria and algae have commonly been regarded as harmful to human health as a result of their capacity to contaminate seafoods. These biotoxins, however, have distinctive properties that can be exploited for varied applications across several fields.Folorunso, O. A. +9 more
